Effect of Structural Lightweight Aggregates with Lightweight Aggregate Concrete Incorporated

Abstract

The member states of the European Union are working on a plan to encourage improvements in buildings' energy efficiency, meet the rising demand for indoor comfort, and reduce energy use for space heating and cooling. To improve indoor air quality and reduce energy consumption, SLWAC construction could be used in place of NWC construction. The lightweight aggregate-concrete in this article is a blend of municipal sewage treatment plant sludge and lightweight aggregates that has been weakened by sewage sludge. This article discusses material physical property laboratory tests. The water emulsion of reactive polysiloxanes lost some of its capacity for water absorption when it was combined with an absorbent substance. The following indirect method was used to detect moisture in porous materials: Reflection in the Time Domain. The heat conductivity coefficients of both lightweight aggregate-concrete types were measured. Following an examination of their moisture and heat characteristics, light aggregates reinforced with sewage sludge were found to be suitable for the production of future products.
